ABSTRACT

Kinesis messages in the Quran are used in many variations. The message variation is not something coincidental and yet carries particular meanings. Therefore, not only is heuristics reading required, but retroactive reading is also a necessity. The purpose of this article is to reveal the findings of the heuristic and retroactive reading of the Prophet Yusuf’s story. A qualitative approach was employed using Riffaterre’s semiotic analysis with a descriptive-analytical approach. The study reveals that the function of kinesis messages of the Prophet Yusuf’s story is to strengthen and substitute verbal messages; the messages delivered are more effective and impactful through kinesis messages, and there are philosophical messages which show that the prophets’ dreams were real, and the obligation to treat all children in a balanced way. Furthermore, findings also uncover the messages of sex education, optimism, patience, total surrendering to God, and being an honest and forgiving official.
